just copy and paste it into your avatar settings in your user/settings.
As for mods. I think an (1) exhaust would be nice, should only take about 600 of your money, and I'm sure one of us can install it for you. (or you can always pay Midas 50 bucks to put it on). (2) You said you like the fender strakes. You have three options with those. (A)...buy the true Mazda part for about 200, (b) buy the replica versions like Jedi54 did, they are stainless steel and are a little more shiney than the Mazda part and are a little cheaper, or (C) buy the replica like Speeddemon has and they are significantly cheaper and are made of UBS plastic....so lighter, and available in many different colors. (3) You could always get a dash kit

As for a battery, if Mazda won't replace it for free, then you may want to consider a deep cycle battery like Optima. Both Cesar and Speed have the "yellow top". They can give you the particulars on pricing and where to buy.

Yay!!!! I'm new! Thanks to Keith. And thx for keeping hubby happy! This way he likes me hanging with you guys! Works for both. Too bad he is my best babysitter or we'd both go Thurdsay.

bring the kids...it is PG friendly...no naked girls or anything. They will most likely be bored though....but it would be nice for Nino to become more invovled in the car scene. I was talking to him today about you spending some of those gambling winnings....he wasn't too excited about a second hobby beyond the horses...

Yeah, well if I didn't have the horses I could have an exotic car! Poor guy he's not into either horses or cars. Luckliy for me, he's into me. And he does like poker and traveling.

yeah, i had a similar problem with my battery, took it into romero motors (those ********) at 11 thousand miles, and they said they can replace the battery, but the pro-rate the old one.
i also took it in earlier than that for weak starting issues. but like they always say (Problem could not be duplicated at this time)

Saw that this thread was getting pretty low down so I thought I'd make a comment. So KK, how do you like the mess we are making on the street? Sure hope the wall looks good when it's done and am very glad nobody crashed into the pile of sand we had out in the street the other night!

hey xrider01 the blue 8 that you saw on haven was me racingx. there are so many 350z's out there that we 8 owners need to stick together. There is a group that meets in San Bernadino but I don't really want to drive over there. We should set up a cruing event, and head up pch or something. If any other 8 owners in rancho are interested please post.

All (most) 8 owners go to San bernardino a few go to the chino hills G2G meets (not rotary only), and there is even one in Diamond Bar but that fizzled out. We do make runs out to malibu every now and then. there arent too many choices for cruises, meets do get boring after a while. RacingX do you happen to park off the 15 by gtmotorsports? I dont see too many blues besides the guy that works at compusa. Are you going to be going to seventock?
